MARSHALL FOR MAYOR
PROGRESS OVER POLITICS
PROGRESS OVER POLITICS
The campaign's core message centers on Selberg's track record as a "bridge builder and problem solver" dedicated to bringing diverse people and personalities together to achieve common goals.
Economic Growth that Benefits Everyone. A Safe & Secure Community. Infrastructure: The Backbone of Growth. Empowering the Next Generation. Reach.
Economic development is about more than creating jobs — it’s about strengthening the services and amenities that make Sioux Falls a great place to live. Growth fuels the parks where our kids play, the police and fire departments that protect us, and the infrastructure that keeps our city running smoothly. True progress means building a community where every resident feels the impact of growth in their daily lives.
Economic Growth that Benefits Everyone
A Safe & Secure Community
Our recent crime updates remind us that while we’ve kept pace with population growth, statistics can’t comfort those personally impacted by crime. For them, it’s not “just numbers.” Safety requires vigilance. We must stay ahead of the curve by ensuring our law enforcement officers, first responders, and public safety professionals are properly staffed and supported. A thriving city must first be a safe city.
Infrastructure: The Backbone of Growth
Infrastructure isn’t flashy, but it’s vital. Veterans Parkway, wastewater expansions, and major interchange projects at Cliff and Minnesota on I-229 are prime examples of the long-term planning that keeps Sioux Falls moving forward. I commend current and past leadership for their foresight. When I travel to other cities, I’m reminded of just how well Sioux Falls maintains its streets and services. Yes, we may hit a pothole or two — but overall, we’ve done an exceptional job. And we must continue to plan boldly for the future.
Empowering the Next Generation
We need to inspire a new generation of civic pride and duty. Step up, get involved and lead. If you want representation of someone who’s been involved in the community, then elect someone who’s been involved in the community. I’ve been involved with the Sioux Falls Area Chamber of Commerce, Downtown Lions Club, Sioux Falls Chapter of the American Cancer Society, Optimist Club, Big Brothers Big Sisters, Realtor Association of the Sioux Empire, Home Builders Association of the Sioux Empire, Our Savior’s Lutheran Church and Bluffs Neighborhood Organization. As a highly involved individual in our community, I see this same energy today in our younger generations. We must give them every opportunity to lead, innovate, and shape the future of our city.
While we must always continue to reach higher, we can’t forget to reach down and pull up those in need. Anxiety, depression, addiction and other mental health struggles are areas that must be addressed in our growing city. While I am a fiscal conservative, on the social program end of government, we have to move to the middle when necessary and people are hurting. Let’s end the stigma and reach out to the countless resources that are available in this community and our government has to be an advocate.
Reach.
"It is my great honor to run for Mayor of Sioux Falls because I believe our city’s best days are ahead—if we work together to make them happen."
